Future ag producers develop skill through 4-H Livestock Quiz Bowl

The Lincoln County 4-H Livestock Quiz Bowl team may be young, but these kids know a thing or two about animal husbandry. All four team members are 10 years old or younger and involved on their families’ farms or ranches in the North Platte area.

There are a number of factors contributing to this price improvement. Production is down. Through July 2025 hog slaughter was down 1.7% and pork production was down 1.5%. Not only was hog slaughter down from a year ago, it was down relative to summer expectations. U.S. hog slaughter over the last 12 weeks (since the beginning of June) was down 3.0% year-over-year. The heavy weight market hog inventory in the June Hogs and Pigs report implied slaughter during this period would be unchanged from a year ago. The difference is larger than usual. The June Hogs and Pigs Report implies fall slaughter will be up a bit less than 1%. Weather also may be having an impact on slaughter levels. The hot summer slowed rates of gain and thus pulled down slaughter weights. The reduced rates of gain also delayed slaughter. The amount of pork in cold storage at the
